So many adults absolutely suck at hitting and throwing and fielding but they don't do anything to get better.
Why?
I can coach you if you want to get better.
Don't play ball like a girl. Your bros will laugh at you.

Uh-oh, I’ve seen people get in trouble for dropping the “play like a girl” thing lately. I’m not sure if “play like a fag” is ok either these days. It really makes you have to think how to describe people who can’t throw a baseball properly.

throwing like a girl isn't a sexist insult it was more about the form of the throw
then it morphed into a sexist insult by ball players

^^ doesn't make it right just because a former President did it, its my personal feeling get over it. it's a dumb look and totally defeats the purpose of the brim, KEEP THE FUCKING SUN OUT OF YOUR EYES, also helps keep the skin just a tad more protected from skin cancer. Never had it? you are lucky I've been hit twice plus neck cancer it ain't fun

^I'm not mad, Elvis, but the visor makes my hair stick straight up, looks rather silly, so i keep it on.
I also have prescription sunglasses, i kinda need them to see, so i will wear them indoors.
I'm scared of the skin cancer too, wear lots of sunscreen as well

I wear regular glasses that become sunglasses outside (transitional I think they are called ) so until they change when I walk indoors I guess I'm guilty as well :) I have very little hair left so ni issue with it sticking up , its all good brother, sometimes I think reading on threads is an attack and I'm sorry for that, still can't figure out basic questions or trolling, maybe I shouldn't go online

No worries, Elvis, my eyes
No worries, Elvis, my eyes are sensitive to light, so sometimes i need to wear the sunglasses indoors. I chose not to get the transitions for that reason. I also don't care for carrying a second set of glasses with me, so i stick with the sunglasses during the day.
If you ever see a middle aged guy wearing a visor and sunglasses indoors, come and say hello If it's me, I'll buy you a drink

taking your hat off indoors
taking your hat off indoors is one of those things that your mom tells you to do when you are a kid and when you ask why she says something about how it is polite, then you ask why it is polite and she responds "it just is" or "because i said so" and angrily changes the subject

I wear a hat outdoors to prevent more skin cancer. I don't want to leave it somewhere so I usually wear it indoors, too, when I'm away from home.
